Worst dentist I have ever been to! Very expensive and inept. I cannot even give him a star. I was given root canals/ crowns that continue to get infected after 12 years . Had developed an aversion to dentists after his work. Finally went to new dentist and the only teeth that had issues were the ones he worked on. I should be reimbursed for all the money and pain he caused me.
